Here is the second sock on the left.
Things I learned this time around:
My gauge is tighter
I'm not afraid of DPNs. I way more comfortable with them now
I can follow instructions better
Practice makes you a better knitter
The first sock is really too small. I started the toe too soon. The second sock is also too small but that is because I ran out of yarn. I was left with about 18 inchs of yarn when I finished.
I enjoyed knitting the second sock. I will for sure be knitting more and more socks.
